Stopped
“Stopped” 是动词 “stop” 的过去式和过去分词,指过去某个时刻“停止移动、停止进行、被拦住或主动停下”。也可用于完成时结构(has stopped)。
- “The bus stopped at the next corner.” (公交车在下一个拐角停了下来。)
- “Rain stopped us from going hiking.” (下雨让我们没法去徒步。)
- “She stopped talking when the teacher walked in.” (老师进来时她停止了说话。)
“Stopped” 来自古英语 “stoppian”(塞住、阻止),双写辅音 p 后加 “-ed” 构成过去式。
“-ed” 为过去式/过去分词后缀;双写 “p” 是因为原形以“单辅音+单元音+单辅音”结尾。
交通标志 “STOP” 全球通用;“stopped by the police”(被警察拦下)在新闻和口语中都很常见。
- 固定搭配: “stopped by” (顺便拜访), “stopped short” (突然停住), “stopped working” (坏了;不运转了)
- 原形: stop;现在分词: stopping
stop + ped(过去)→ stopped:车已经 stop,再加 ed 就是“停过了”。
“Tom stopped the car when he saw the deer. The engine stopped, and for a moment everything stopped moving.” (汤姆看见鹿时停下了车。引擎熄了,一瞬间万物都静止了。)
